Data Analyst Job in Kenya

About Nova Academies: If

we reinvented education for Africa’s 21st century, what would it look

like? 

We think it would combine a focus on

the foundational skills and mindsets needed to thrive in the modern economy,

and learning by solving challenging problems in real situations. 

We think it would involve cutting

edge technology training, access to global thought leaders, and connectivity

with likeminded schools across the globe. 

We are a pan-African network of

schools for the next generation of leaders and innovators in Africa. 

We have two schools in South Africa

and one school in Nairobi — and continuing to scale quickly. 

We deliver world-class learning and

21st century skills at an affordable cost, and teach students to learn through

creative problem solving, collaborative leadership, and self-mastery.
